That is just a story People can do this sort of thing on any big bike really. That’s the problem about living in Norwich stuck out on the east, you have got to travel a lot to get anything You lot can go 50 miles in any direction we can only go 50miles in two directions
That salesman sounds as if he needs some education in customer relations and salesmanship!! Friggin' nutcase. Taken to a stretch - he's cost the dealership a sale of a near 20-grand bike!!
Who needs a demo.......I didn't test ride mine! The way I saw it was.........it's newer than what I've got, it looks better than what I've got......fuck it I'll have it!!!
Yeah I'd tend to agree but it feels more aggressive position wise when I sit on it compared to the older blades. I need to see if my back will stand decent day ride out mileage on it or else it's pointless considering it. Id still be keep the current one for everything else
In a sense, you're right, @PauloHRC . Most of us don't. However, the women's psyche is one that must be TOTALLY convinced before making a purchase. Just reflect on times that Mrs Paulo has lingered in a fashion store trying on dresses for 30-plus friggin' minutes! (And then probably walked out with the time-famed excuse: 'Oh, I'll have to think about it.' So we can understand that @Lozzy , probably with the elusive @Diane piggott whispering in her ear, wanting to be totally convinced that the bike is ergonomically suited to her svelte curves.
And therein lies the problem The new SP looks tiny..... and I'm going to feel like a Hippo on a unicycle compared to Di May have to force feed her fritters
Lozz, truly I don't think you'd notice much difference. It would also be an 'acquired' taste. You know how I have blabbed on about the comfort of my 2004, but it really is negligible. I hope for your sake that you do get an opportunity to throw a leg over (in the nicest possible way of course) so you can see why @Wozza , @PauloHRC , @keithg1748 , and others including myself rave over this bike!
I like my bikes like my blokes though Nige... Big & stocky Oh god.....heeelp...I've seem to have caught a dose of bazzeritus
It's got a nice cover now....complete with a 24hr midget manservant under there constantly polishing the Marchesinis
